Stopping the Burka

An idea to end the practice of burkas / hijabs being worn in the west: Instead of making it illegal for women to wear the burka, lets make it mandatory for prostitutes to wear it.

On The Domestication of Cats

I found myself wondering about how the first cats were domesticated.

How do you think the first cavemen that unwittingly became cat owners felt? Imagine them huddled in their cave, thinking how lucky they were not to be eaten by one of the savage wild animals in the area that day. And then a miniature version of one of the most dangerous ones walks in and sits by the fire and starts purring.

Wonder what their reaction was.

(In case you were wondering, the domestic cat diverged from its ancestors as they increasingly relied on hunting vermin around human settlements. Similar to wolves evolving into dogs.)

Spotlight

I think I’d like to grow a beard. And then shave it all off except the part on my throat and under my jaw. So it looks like a shadow.

“Hey I didn’t know you were standing directly under a spotlight!”

Addendum:

Pedantic

You can’t use the word pedantic without seeming pedantic.
